"You Pick the Winners" gets down to the final semester. Will Chuck and Branson make the grade? Watch video
CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Mark Bobal of Westlake went 15-1 last week to win a $25 gift card and qualify for a spot in the finals where he could win a $250 gas card.
Hosts Chuck Yarborough and Branson Wright weren't quite so proficient. Our Starting Blockheads each went 11-5, which allowed Branson to maintain his three-game lead over the handsome, debonair, honest, hard-working and modest Chuck, 104-70 to 101-73.
That'll change this week when Branson sticks with his beloved Raiders, who go up against the NFL's best passer, Philip Rivers. That's the same Philip Rivers who outdueled the great Peyton Manning last week. Money in the bank, baby. Money in the bank.
Each week, fans can go online to cleveland.com/footballpicks and
make their predictions. The winning prognosticator gets that $25 gas
card and the opportunity to be the guest of SBTV hosts Branson and Chuck on "You Pick the Winners," streaming on cleveland.com every
Friday morning.
In the event of a tie, we'll use the total score
of the Browns game as a tiebreaker, which is how Matt emerged the winner in this week's contest. Whoever comes closest to the total
without going over will prevail. If there's still a tie after that,
we'll do a random drawing. See official contest rules
for further details. Whoever makes the most correct picks will become a
finalist for a $250 gift card to be awarded at the end of the season.
(OK, it's not much; this is mostly for fun.)
